C307 – Who Deserves the Merit?


    Posted on November 20, 2018 by AzureOrchid92


    The pained screaming gradually weakened. The tumbling movements gradually slowed down.


    Above the desert, a gust of wind blew toward the oasis, taking the dust of the oasis away.


    The muddy sand curtain faded and scattered. The situation inside was then revealed in front of everyone.


    The original oasis had several stone houses. Two-thirds of it were destroyed, and the rest, even if not thoroughly smashed, was also damaged. The ground was rugged, and the surrounding houses and trees were covered with a thickyer of sand.


    With the usually clear spring pond, the water had be cloudy. There were a lot of dust floating on the surface of it. The people wanted to clean the spring, but they had to wait at least one night to finish.


    The area between a copsed house and the spring pond had a high hill, only revealing a tail outside. At that moment, Chacha grabbed the tail and pulled outward to drag it out. Its power,pared to this type of beast, was small, especially since the Quicksand Beast forcibly drilled underground. It would have been doomed to drag it for a long time, but, fortunately, the Quicksand Beast now has been weakened, and could not continue to drill anymore.


    “Ah-Xuan!”


    Lei and Tuo rushed forward, ignoring whether the beast was really defeated. Whether there was danger depended on the movement in the sand.


    “What are you staring at? Hurry over to help!” Su Gu urgently shouted tomand the ves to pull out the sand beast.


    The ves were still a little wary, but, after seeing that the two tribesmen were all right, that was only when they dared to gather and move out together.


    Peng!


    A figure emerged from under the sand, which scared the ves who were pulling the beast out. Their hands let loose, and they fell on the ground.


    However, after seeing who came out, the people around visibly rxed.


    “Ah-Xuan, are you all right?” Lei and Tuo stepped forward to pull Shao Xuan out.


    “Cough!” Shao Xuan cleared the sand in his mouth as well as the sand inside his ears and nose. Once he had taken a breath, he replied, “I’m okay. I just had a few bones broken.” The injury was not too serious for Shao Xuan. He didn’t need to take a rest.


    After looking at Shao Xuan’s injury, Lei and Tuo stopped worrying and dragged the sand beast out of the sand.


    Watching thempletely dragging the motionless Quicksand Beast out of the sand, the ves looked at each other, seeming not to dare believe it.


    “Dead? Is it really…… dead?”


    “How could it die?”


    “What the hell is going on?”


    The ves were puzzled as they gaze at Shao Xuan, looking at him with dread in their eyes.


    “Ha! Haha haha haha!!” Su Gu looked at the dead Quicksand Beast andughed aloud. Seeing that a few ves came near the beast too, the smile on his face disappeared, instantly changing his expression as he spoke in a cold voice. “What is it? You want to rob our prey?! This was killed by the ming Horns people, not you!”


    ording to the rules here, since the ming Horns tribe and Su Gu have a cooperation, then naturally, the results could also be partially attributed to Su Gu. Hence, Su Gu could say that this was his things.


    “Yes … But…… Third Young Master …” There were ves who wanted to justify themselves, looking at the big Quicksand Beast on the ground with unwilling expressions.


    They wanted to say that it was not just them who should take the credit. What about the others? Those people stationed in the oasis? Most of the wounds in the Quicksand Beast were caused by these ves. At most, this ming Horns person met an opportunity to just add a few attacks on the beast afterwards. How can it just be owned by them and the third young master?


    “Move aside!” Su Gu let out a loud roar, pointing to those several ves. “Don’t mention anything. You failed to catch the Quicksand Beast, then unexpectedly led it to the oasis! Look how you’ve ruined the oasis!”


    The number of guards on this side of the oasis was indeed quiterge. However, today, it was different because of Ai Shi. Shortly before the Quicksand Beast came, nearly two-thirds of the guards were sent to several ces near the oasis to patrol. They were tasked to search for suspicious people, hence, when the Quicksand Beast rushed over, those who were sent out did not get back in time to help. When they finally came over, the Quicksand Beast had already been rolling on the ground because of Shao Xuan, making a haze in the oasis.


    The ves who just came to help, looked at these ves poorly. They actually dared to bring the Quicksand Beast here, and more unluckily to encounter it today when most of them were out for a search. Then, looking at the ruin of the oasis now, they knew that the king could certainly be angry at them, especially at the oasis guard ves.


    A fierce-looking ve went to Ai Shi’s side. He was one of the leaders of the oasis guards. During the attack of the Quicksand Beast, they were looking for a suspicious person. They never thought that they woulde across this matter when they came back. He whispered a few words to Ai Shi, and did not look at the ves of the second young master, thenmanded his men to mend the houses. His master was the king of Luoye city, and not these young masters.


    After hearing the news reported by the man just now, Ai Shi recalled that it did seem too coincidental. Why did the Quicksand Beast attack this side just as some of the oasis’s main guards were outside? Second young master sent these people to hunt the Quicksand Beast, and there was no certainty that they could do so. This matter was not simple, perhaps, something that those from White Rock would do.


    “You guys,e back with me to see the king!” Ai Shi pointed to the ves who had led the Quicksand Beast.


    When they heard that he wanted to see the king, the ves immediately felt their legs go soft and they were desperate.


    Ai Shi did not look at them, but went to Su Gu’s side, saying, “Third Young Master, may I also ask you to see the king together.”


    This time, Su Gu did not lose his temper. He also felt that there was something wrong with this, as he nodded. “Ok.”


    Since he already promised to see the king, just as well that Su Gu would bring back the sand beast to his father on the way.


    Ai Shi did not call Shao Xuan’s group. His eyes just stared at them with suspicion and vignce.


    Shao Xuan was indifferent to it. His main aim was not necessarily to show a good impression in front of these people. He didn’t care how these people thought. This time, he could have just watched, but he chose to risk attacking the Quicksand Beast for Dao Yu.


    ording to what Su Gu said, some people went directly to White Rock to find Dao Yu, and most of them already got back. Majority of the desert cities were not friendly to tribes. Of course, this second point was important. Shao Xuan did not know whether he could find Dao Yu if he infiltrated White Rock.


    However, if he could follow them to that beasts fight in Beast City, it would be different. Not only could he see Dao Yu, he could also have a glimpse of the legendary Beast City.


    To naturally be invited to go to the Beast City, it would be with Su Gu as Su Gu made a good suggestion in front of the Luoye City King. He would then have an opportunity to go with Su Gu to that city of fighting beasts. In the past, there were tribes who had used simr ways.


    That day, when Ai Shi and the others returned to the city, many people saw the Quicksand Beast that was put on a cart and dragged into town.


    Before separating from Su Gu, Shao Xuan whispered to him a few words. Originally, Su Gu was angry because of other people’s doubtful eyes. When he heard Shao Xuan’s words, his eyes became bright and said to Shao Xuan, “Good! If it’s really sessful, I will help you find Dao Yu!”


    Note: Not sure about the title. Anyway, I have another issue on the names. What’s better?
